    Question 86 200x needs motor help (fix?)

    anyone think i can straighten this connecting rod? can i at least salvage the piston and jug? I know the connecting rod might need a little weld job but other than that, she's gonna be good as new. LMAO

    Speaking of different engines for it, when I first picked it up I thought, maybe that 426 wiould fit in there? Well I measured it and it is only about a inch from fitting legth wise. If only the swing arm bolt was a little further back. Oh and when you get redy to fire that tiger up PM me. I would love to come up and check one of those badboys out. If you have some space to ride I might just have to bring my T3 along and we can go for a ride.

    Well I finaly said screw it with trying to get the kickstarter off of the tecat the civilized way. Tomorrow night I am taking the die grinder to it and cutting a slit in it so that I can pry it apart. I hope it works. Just let me know when you get that bad boy together and I will be up.
